The Dark type gym leader uses a Lv. 1 Pokemon with Wonder Guard. What is the type of the Pokemon?

It seems unsporting to tell you, but OK:

Spoiler:

Kingmadio is a Ghost/Dark type. The way to kill it is to poison or confuse it, or drain all its PP and let it kill itself with Struggle. Or set up a damaging weather like Sandstorm or Hail.

Why is it, that when you catch a weedle, it shows clamperls icon in the pokémon section?

Weedle is not naturally in the Hoenn Pokédex, so I overwrote Clamperl, Huntail and Gorebyss to fit in Weedle and its evolutionary line. This explains the icon. Their stats and learnsets have also been slightly revamped to justify replacing an ugly little clam with an ugly little caterpillar.

For some odd reason he moved around a lot of pokemon to make room for the fakes and what not. The rom is jumbled mess when viewed with a sprite editior. I'm just curious as to why you'd remove weedle. And replace it with something then to remove clamperl and replace it with weedle. Wouldn't it have been more logical to replace clamperl and its line with whatever you replaced weedle with? That just seems odd to me.

Weedle was not moved to make room for fakes: Weedle was moved so as to appear in the Hoenn Pokédex, back when I still cared whether or not they did so. The fakemon that took over Weedle's old line appeared later on. I got rid of Clamperl for Weedle because I prefer Beedrill to Gorebyss or Huntail, to be perfectly honest. Now, I no longer move Pokémon into the Hoenn dex if I want them to be in Snakewood. I just put them in there and hang the consequences.

As for the ROM being a jumbled mess... Yes. Yes it is. I only got the hang of inserting sprites when I was halfway through, so anything done before that point is, as you say, a jumbled mess. You are looking at a sharp learning curve, immortalised in clumps of random sprite data. :)

And as for seeming odd, well, I have that effect on a lot of people. The logic I was given at birth seems slightly skewed in comparison to everyone else's.

EDIT: I will be adding Pokémon mini-icons at some point. It's just that, like the player overworlds, they don't strike me as the most important parts of the hack, and so will inevitably get left until last.

The story certainly is.... interesting. XD And the custom sprites could use a little work. Your mapping isn't the best, but it isn't bad either. Good luck on this.

Yes, I'm aware of all of this. Looking back at the beginning of the hack, I can see things that I thought were great then that make me wince now. I have got better through experience, and no doubt one day not too far away I'll look back at what I'm doing now and say to myself, "What was I thinking?"

Oho, I could, I could! Or I could treat Snakewood as the learning hack I intended it to be, and put the skills I have been acquiring to better use in making the hack I actually set out to make, Pokémon Keratin Version. Maybe I'm lazy, or maybe after however long it's been I'm simply disillusioned with zombies, but...

Where do you get strength

You don't. You don't need it yet. Personally, Strength is my least favourite HM: its base power lures you in with promise that it might actually be useful on a Pokémon with good Attack and poor physical learnset; but it always disappoints in the end. So, until the very end at least, there will be no Strength, not least because Strength rocks block the way to Snakewood's equivalent of the legendary golems.

Downloaded and played this hack (on livestream! it was fun! x3) and I'm really enjoying it so far; the sequence breaking (by which I mean the speed at which you acquire Surf and the doing-away of things such as gyms) keeps the game fresh, even though the setting is the same. I do think you could use a tile revamp of some sort, even though it's set in Hoenn and all. I'm also missing the female PC's overworlds, but that's just an aesthetic thing, like you said. Also there's a tile error in Littleroot town. Or maybe those white blocks are supposed to be there. I dunno.

I'm doing a pseudo-Nuzlocke, by which I mean that I'm limiting myself to 1 per route and I was doing the release-if-faint thing until Koffing fainted and I was like "screw that." I'm really looking forward to exploring more!

Question; do Weezing or Qwilfish have further evolutions?

Oh wonderful! I do enjoy it when people enjoy things I've made. Now, Weezing originally had a third evolution called Hakking, but it no longer does. This was because it used to be the only starter. However, Qwilfish does have a further evolution. It evolves at Level 33 into the mysterious Pokémon silhouetted in one of the screenshots on the first post.

And I know about the tile error in Littleroot. I can't get it to disappear. And I haven't put in the female overworlds yet. Sorry, but since they're not essential, they'll go in last, like the Pokémon icons.

The sequence-breaking was a major factor in creating this game. HMs appearing in the same order and the endless routine of Gyms get kind of boring - so there are now only three Gyms left in the game, one of which is in Dewford, one of which isn't really a Gym, and one of which is in, of all places, Pacifidlog town...

Oh! Almost forgot: If anyone has got far enough, please don't Fly back to Littleroot Town yet and Surf across the water... Because the area beyond that is nowhere near finished yet, and you won't be able to get back out again if you go there. I'll block it off in the next update, but still.

EDIT: I love the names of the Pokémon on your team... especially Mr. Wiggles.

This hack is so awesome in its storyline and totally straying from the linear story in the actual games. Right now I'm at the Dewford Gym (btw... is the Dewford Gym Leader from FLCL? If so...nice). I'm a little stuck with said leader, need to train my team some more. Anywho, good work and keep it up!

It is true; Haruko is indeed from FLCL. Give yourself five points - that's an easy reference to get. I wonder if you can get any of the harder ones?

After speaking with Usher, jump down the hole and go to a small area to the left of the place where you go down to the bottom floor. You'll find a broken elevator here. You must work out how to fix it so you can progress...

Yay! I love it when people like things I've done. Or maybe I just like having my ego fed with praise.;)
